Japan Can’t Get an Answer on What the US Wants From a Trade Deal
Countries are always willing to discuss new trade agreements, but both sides have to have objectives. The problem is that American trade negotiators have no idea what they want in exchange. Somehow HitlerPig thinks that just charging a tax on all goods will somehow save "everything," but nobody is clear on what needs to be saved.
Seriously, MAGA Nazis, what exactly is this trade war supposed to accomplish?
You don't even need to ask. Donnie has a mouth as big as they can get. 110% guarantee if a single country worth naming "begged", as he likes to put it, he'd be waving it in our faces like it was the biggest achievement made by mankind.
But yes, do keep asking. He may not admit it, but it helps him know that we don't forget his lies, and hold him to them. Not only that, the constant pressure wears him down and makes him even sloppier - even admitting in front of cameras he "doesn't know" if a POTUS must uphold the constitution.
All of it serves as recorded proof for when the reckoning time comes. For him, and the rest of his dear MAGA admin.
hes been obssessed with tariffs his whole life, he isnt going to let that go. he might even have a OCD disorder, given how hes also very strange around germs, and alcohol.
the pressure is so bad, he had to put on so much orange concealer, it makes him look like a party clown.
So, uh, any idea when the trade deals are a comin'?
I have a concept of an idea when the trade deals are a comin'.
TWO FUCKING WEEKS.
Infrastructure week then trade deal week, Jesus it's not that hard
I came here to ask the same question. Anyone know?
"There are 18 very important trading relationships, and we are currently negotiating with 17 of those trading partners," Bessent told the House Appropriations Subcommittee on Financial Services and General Government on Tuesday. "Approximately 97 or 98% of our trade deficit is with 15 countries, 18% of the countries are our major trading partners. And I would be surprised if we don’t have more than 80 or 90% of those wrapped up by the end of the year, and that may be much sooner."
Uhhh....I'm not sure you understand the gravity of the self-made situation when you have major retailers saying shelves could be empty in weeks because of this stupidity.
"Obviously, we're working as expeditiously as possible, but we're not trying to make deals that are Band-Aids for the sake of making deals," the official added.
So when is America getting trade deals? Never? Ok.
when he stops obsessing over tariffs, which he hasnt.
When Trump leaves the Whitehouse and fascism becomes fringe again.
It will hit the rich and entitled just as hard once contractors can't buy the tools to complete their selfish nepo tasks.
"who will wire my pool house with CAT6?!"
lmao, bro, shelves at Home Depot are empty, idk
Is this real? I honestly cant tell anymore because he literally talks like this but also a 5yo could tell better lies
Too fuckin bad.
I'll bet he does. Even this delusional, dimwitted blowhard knows he's fucked up.
They ain't
